My team at Eat Local creates such beautiful pizzas. I'm so proud of how hard they work together and how every step of each prep process comes together to produce the pizzas that we have grown this business with together. A pizza is built many different steps, each step particular and crucial in its own way. A team is built the same way, every person important and integral for their own responsibility and capacity. When I look at this pizza I see the morning crew rolling dough, stacking it in the fridge to proof. I see chicken getting roasted and bacon being sliced. I see the front of house staff taking an order over the phone and I see the guys stretching crusts by hand for service. I see someone carefully placing toppings and gently placing the pizza in the oven. When I look at this picture I see my whole team working in unison and I don't think I could be more proud. -Jim #thunderbay #pizza #tbayloving #eatlocal #eatlocalpizza #ontariofood #canadafood #food #pizza #teamwork #proud #serviceindustry #community #family #ontario #smallbusiness

A topic that comes up often around here is: "What it means to be a Food Person." From farming to producing to cooking, no matter where you are in the food supply chain, you grind hours, often performing the same task over and over for years at a time, pushing yourself to bring your product to a level that reflects what food means to you. It can be a demanding and often misunderstood path to walk, but in that brief moment, looking someone in the eye as they take that first bite... you share a moment of unspoken clarity and mutual appreciation of the ingredients, process and the results, a moment where it's all worth it. Then you start again. That's what it means to be a Food Person. #eatlocalpizza #serviceindustry #farmer #baker #cook #chef #parent #ontariofood #thunderbay #food #foodpeople #foodperson #eatlocal #eat

🥒Not only do pickes belong on pizza, but when you have the best pickles in the world (from Jims Mom) you need the rest of the ingredients to really pop too. 🥩Our "Cheeseburger Beef" is local ground beef mixed with mustard and horseradish then flame broiled to lock in that feeling and taste of a great cheeseburger. 🧀We use not only great Canadian mozza, but local extra old gouda cheese from Thunder Oak Cheese Farm, it has a sharp sort of infinitely old Cheddar kick that stacks up well with the pickles and beef. Our bacon is smoked right here in Thunder Bay. It smells as good as it tastes. That salty/smoky offset to the sweet, tangy and the savory pulls the whole pizza together. 🔒To round it out is the secret sauce. It's a secret. 🌰🍎The base is a savory relish made from red onions and applesauce. 🌾The crust is made with local flour and canola oil and proofed for 2 days before use to give it that mix of crispy/crunchy/chewy that Thunder Bay loves. 🍔🍕The Cheeseburger Pizza, an Eat Local Classic in Thunder Bay. #eatlocal #eatlocalpizza #pickles #ontariofood #thunderbay #pizza #eatpizza #cheese #gouda #bacon #localflour #food #instafood #instagood #snacks #ontario #smallbiz #greatfood
